Amarone is bold in flavor, with a rich and silky mid-palate. Has notes of candied plums, cherries, tobacco, and roasted coffee followed by a long lingering chocolatey finish.

Steak, game, and rich cheeses are all excellent choices. It is also the perfect after-dinner wine. For the best results, open the wine 30 minutes before drinking to allow it to breathe.

Amarone della Valpolicella Riserva must undergo a minimum aging period for at least four years.
